Plugin for IntelliJ IDEA

We introduce the alpha version of the plugin for IntelliJ IDEA 2024.3.x+ IDE variants. It is compatible with 2025.x and should be compatible with other IDEA flavors, notably OpenIDE. It supports the following features:

  • syntax highlighting (2 stage, fast and more accurate that analyses in background)
  • reformat code (indents, spaces)
  • reformat on paste
  • smart enter key

Features are configurable via the plugin settings page, in system settings.

Recommended for IntelliJ-based IDEs: While IntelliJ can import TextMate bundles (Settings/Preferences → Editor → TextMate Bundles), the native Lyng plugin provides better support (formatting, smart enter, background analysis, etc.). Prefer installing this plugin over using a TextMate bundle.

Install

  • From ZIP: download the archive below, then in IntelliJ IDEA open Settings/Preferences → Plugins → gear icon → Install Plugin from Disk… and select the downloaded ZIP. Restart IDE if prompted.
  • Alternatively, if/when the plugin is published to a marketplace, you will be able to install it directly from the “Marketplace” tab (not yet available).
